When the new "spam and virus wizard" of KMail (cvs) tries to search for f-prot, it fails because we only have f-prot.sh. Sure KMail can search for that file f-prot.sh, but I think it's our fault (gentoo), because most programs calls itself "program" and not "program.sh". Perhaps we must patch it in order to have f-prot. Thanks. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: KMail cannot find "f-prot" because we use f-prot.sh Expected Results: KMail (and perhaps other utilities) finding that executable file f-prot.
this should be assigned to the maintainer of the f-prot package
I opened a bug for this at bugs.kde.org: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87591 They told me to inform the ebuild maintainer. A symlink in /usr/bin/ or adding /opt/f-prot to the path should fix it.
The symlink thing doesn't work. And why adding /opt/f-prot to the path? Just rename /usr/bin/f-prot.sh to /usr/bin/f-prot and everything is fine. I don't know anything that says that file names of shell scripts have to end with .sh. And if the binary f-prot and the shell script f-prot are in different directories nothing goes wrong.
Assigning to the current f-prot-maintainer.
I added a symlink /usr/bin/f-prot -> /usr/bin/f-prot.sh. Reopen if KMail still doesn't work as expected.
